To check
if the car has the factory fitted Bose system if not obvious, use a meter to
check the resistance across the speaker connections. If the resistance reading
is not 4 ohms, then this will be an amplified system.
The
vehicle should have two ISO connections and one Mini ISO connection as shown
below.
In Simple Terms where
Stalk Adaptors are not being used.
The brown
socket of PC2-36-AMPR will connect with the black Speaker ISO plug in the
picture on the left. The Red Socket on PC2-36-AMPR with then fit the Yellow,
Green and Blue connections. The attached Red wire will then connect with Pin 6
of the Yellow mini iso. The other end of the Red lead should then be connected
the fly wire on the new head unit marked Amp Remote which gives out a +12v
supply triggering the amplifiers to turn on.
The Black
and Red RCA plugs on the PC2-36-AMPR can then be connected to RCA Pre-outs on
the new head unit. We recommend using a medium power head unit, (not high output
such as 5.5v) with dedicated front and rear channel outputs.
The Black
wires on the PC2-36-AMPR do not need to be connected for the device to work, but
are there for additional grounding and can be connected to the black wire of the
main head unit power connector.
Please note, the
PC2-36-AMPR kit is now provided with the Red wire floating, and not installed into
the Red M-46 block, this allows the option to install the red wire into a Stalk
adaptor module, where stalk controls are still being used with the new head
unit, please see instructions below.
Where Stalk control
adaptor CTSAR001 is not being used, install red wire into M-46 block, see below.
 |
 |
| Red wire installed into this position |
Then push wire home until it clicks. |
 |
|
| It should appear in this position from the
front. |
|
Where Stalk controls are
being used specifically CTSAR001, connect as shown in these pictures below.
 |
 |
| Stalk comes like this, no Remote amp pin. |
Install red wire into this position |
 |
 |
| Push home until it clicks. |
It should now look like this from Front. |
 |
 |
| The Stalk and PC2-36-AMPR kit..... |
....then plug together like this. |

This solution now makes
the PC2-36-AMPR compatible with either Stalk adaptors from Connects2, CTSAR001
or CTSAR002. You will then also need patch lead such as CTBLAUPUNKTLEAD.
